History
In 1991 construction started on Dayong Airport, which had its first test flight in December 1993 (Dayong is the former name of Zhangjiajie City).
The airport eventually opened for commercial flights under the name Dayong Zhangjiajie Airport on 18 August 1994.{{Cite web|title=公司简介-张家界荷花国际机场 ZhangJiaJie HeHua International Airport-|url=http://www.zjjhhjc.com/aboutus/|access-date=2021-05-09|website=www.zjjhhjc.com}} In 1995 it was renamed Zhangjiajie Hehua Airport. In 1999 it served 500,000 passengers annually.{{Cite book|last1=Ryan|first1=Chris|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=lCSDBAAAQBAJ&dq=zhangjiajie++airport&pg=PA51|title=Tourism in China: Destination, Cultures and Communities|last2=Huimin|first2=Gu|date=2009-01-13|publisher=Routledge|isbn=978-1-135-85178-1|language=en}}
